You can leave the boards, but the boards cannot leave you..

We all have been there before! GOOD LUCK!


I'm not leaving the boards. I just mean that I won't indulge in threads that gripe about "message board politics" as long as there are substantive topics to engage. And when those run out, I'll go read a book.

I trust you and Some Shmo to nail me if I slip into hypocrisy.

What a strange answer, Porter. If I recall correctly, LSD was one of the first posters you asked about on this board. Now why is that, eh?

I'm not going to participate in any more of the cross posting, personality attacking madness that's been going on with too much regularity between the critics here on MDB and a few people on MAAD. The number one reason is it's a complete waste of time. I'm not going to post on such threads anymore, and I probably won't even read them. I hope I won't even be mentioned on them because I don't want to be sucked in.

Any attempt to turn this thread into an argument about of blame and victim, or who started it, or what the moderators should do about it... is completely off topic and antithetical to the purpose of this thread.

Instead, I invite others to join me in a vow of Board War pacifism. We should have better things to talk about, and if that's not the case, then we should all go off-line and pick up a book.


You're great, Dude. Discouraging board wars, then posting this here.

But Ray, I participate on both boards. If I have something to say to both groups of people, then this is the way to do it. If you think this constitutes a board war in itself then you are a small minded pharisee.

Whatever makes your day brighter, Dude. I just find this thread kind of, ironic.

Irony is cheap and vastly overrated.

Links please.


That board mysteriously disappeared.....I guess we'll have to start another one with MAD in a month or so.

Is this a sign....is Hell freezing over? Say it ain't so Juliann. I need a nemesis. Someone to blame for everything and yet never deal in real life with because they're so evil and mean and all that jazz.

Am I really funny, or is this just Juliann's razor sharp sarcastic side coming back to slice and dice me like a Dreamy Teenage Diva on Elm Street or a Clumsy Co-ed Counselor at Camp Crystal Lake? I know it's need to know information, and I almost seriously kinda need to know.
